Days Inn & Suites by Wyndham Milwaukee

8/10 Good

"The lobby and room were both very clean. Maybe the cleanest room I've ever stayed in. Everything is a little dated but I really appreciated how clean it was. The staff was very helpful and pleasant. There was also limited parking so you may have to park on the street."

Motel 6 Milwaukee, WI - Glendale

10/10 Excellent

"Great property. Friendly staff. Managers Becky and Keysha were very very helpful and amazing with any questions or concerns we had. Rooms were very clean beds comfortable and our all out stay was just wonderful. Will definitely use this motel 6 the next time I need something in this area and would definitely recommend to friends and family if in need. They have decent prices whether you're staying a day or need a extended week stay. Keep up the good work guys!!!"
